Chicago, June 8. (Special Tele gram.) The leck are now cleared for the main action of president (.hooting, Today'i meetings of the remiblican , national convention may be charac terized strictly biiMinesi sessions, and by buckling down and aboiding side diversions, the preliminaries to nomi nation have been accomplished in a dignified manner without unseemly haste or deviation from the usual regular order, The one thing of big significance, of course, is the appointment upon invi tation of the Bull Moose convention of a 'special committee on conference to act with a like committee with a vievr of blazing a way to "get togeth er." While I have some hope that the desired object may be attained, 1 must confess that at this moment of writ ing which is just after adjournment to the morrow, ( am not over san guine for 1 realize the tremendous ob stacles in the way of complete and cordial co-operation between the two conventions. Moose Unanimous. It goes without saying that the null Moose delegates are almost unanimous for the nomination for Kxtoscvelt, in fact I am informed that it was hard driving to induce them to initiate the conference proposition be fore making their own nomination. It goes also without saying that the committee conference named by the Hull Moose will hold tenaciously for the Colonel. On the other side it seems equally abvious that the nomi nation of Koosevelt by the republi can convention is next to impossible and that, if left to itself, it will name Hughes on a second or third ballot. 'i he temper of many of the repub lican delegates this morning was that of being "nettled" by the threat and ultimatum talk on the part of the Hull Moose and a growing disposition to "shy off," but wholly free from bad humor as attested by the few dis sents to the motion to accede to the conference request. Vet it should be nderstood too that the committee appointed to rep resent the republican convention is hardly a Hughes committee. On the face of it, it is made up prcpondcrent ly of men who have been intimately associated together in the senate. "That committee, if.it could have its own way, would be for Koot, de clared a well known man who knows the ins-and-outs of the game. "This is the final effort," he added, "to put through the original program to name Root, if the colonel and his followers can be brought to accept and support him." To me the probability of prevailing on the bull moosers to take Koot or upon the republicans to take any one acceptable to the bull moorers, except Hughes, seems such a long chance that I would not be surprised if the conference resulted in no more than an agreement to disgree and that the real agreement between the two parties would havft to be brought about by conferences, later of course. "I may be miscalculating the con ditions but that is the way they look to me for the moment, with what knowledge I have gleaned from the men on the inside and higher up. I repeat that failure to agree on a joint nomination other than Hughes means the nomination of Hughes by the republicans regardless of the ac tion of the convention of any other political party. Platform Seekes High Level The platform certainly strikes a high level of Americanism and pro gressiveism and can easily give com mon standing room for all who ever called themselves republicans. It is disticly an olive branch to the ele ment that wandered away four years igo, but it is also an inspiring dec Tiraiion of prinsipals to which all republicans can subscribe and a chal lenge to the ' Americanism of evry loyal citizen. 1 might point out the importance of the new rules which as I have said writrs into the constitution of the p.nty the reorganization begun by .idnisiiiiciil of delegate representation oid makes ilcftnile the Composition jnd lopon-iliiliiv (if the patty ma ihincrv.

REPUBLICAN WARHORSE MAKES HIT AT CHICAGO. i t '- , s A UNCLE JOE CANNON. Sherman Boomers Have Elephant on Their Hands Chicago, June 8, Managers pf the Sherman presidential boom have an elephant on their hands in Chin-Chin, said to be the smallest pachyderm in the worltj. The midget elephant, which is four and a half feet high and weighs 350 pounds, was brought to Chicago by express from New York for use as a mascot to head the Sher man outdoor parades. It has rained for three days and in stead of outdoor processions the Sherman crowd has confined its ef forts to demonstrations in hotel lob bies. The baby elephant, wearing a blan ket with the inscription: "Sher man's G. O. V., a United Tarty," spent the night in the Sherman head quarters on the second tloor of the Congress hotel. Manager Ciores today ordered the elephant out of the building and until some other plans could be made it was taken to the baggage room.

Koll call for members of new na tional committee followed. Following is the report of the reso lutions committee; "In 1801 the republican parly stood for the union. As it stood for the union of states, it now stands for a united peoole, true to American ideal., loyal to American traditions, know ing no allegiance except to the con stitution, the government and Hag of the United Slates.

"Wc declare that we believe in and will enforce the protection of every American citizen in all the rights secured to him by the constitution, treaties and the law of nations, at ! h nine am) abroad, hy land and sea. These rights, which in violation of the specific promise of their parly made at Baltimore in 1 V 1 2, the demo cratic president and the democratic congress have failed to defend, wc will unflinchingly maintain.

We must per form all our duties and insist upon all our rights as neutrals without fear and without favor. Wc believe the peace and neutrality as well as the dignity and influence of the United Slates cannot be preserved by shifty expedients, by phrase, making, by per formances in language or by attitudes ever changing in an effort to secure groups of voters.

"We express our horror and indig nation at the outrages which have been and are being perpetrated by these bandits upon Americannen and women who were or arc in Mexico by invitation of the laws and of the government of that country and whose rights to security of person and prop erty arc guaranteed by solemn treaty obligations. We denounce the inde fensible methods of interference em ployed by this administration in the internal affairs tf Mexico and refer with shame to its failure to discharge the duty of this country as next friend to Mexico, its duty to other powers who have relied upon us as such friend and its duty to our citizens in Menico in permitting the continu ance of such conditions, first by fail ure to act promptly and firmly, and second, bv lending its influence to the continuation of such conditions through recognition of one of the fac tions responsible for t!iesf outrages.

They were following right behind Ny gaard and Hansen. The road is in good condition and it is said both cars were traveling at a rapid clip. There is a point in the road where a sharp turn follows a rise over a knoll. As a result the turn is almost hidden to the driver. Nygaard, how ever, managed to make Ihe turn safe ly, but Keirii failed to see it until he was right on top of it. lie threw on the brakes, but couldn't stop and the car side-slipped over a high enhank ment, pitching Mack, Martin ami Storz out of the car and pinning Remi underneath.

A communica tion from the progressive convention inviting the republican convention to appoint a committee of conference to meet a like committee from the pro gressives was received by Chairman Harding during Senator Lodge's read nig of ihe platform. ' Senator Smoot said: "You can't felt what they will do, but it is more than likely we will appoint a coin 111 i ( tec ti meet them," Presents Invitation. Chairman Harding presented the invitation from Ihe progressive con vention for the appointment oi a joint conference committee to consider the difference between Ihe two bodies. Leo Weinberg, a Maryland dele gale, has asked for recognition in the republican convention to offer a reso lution to invit- Colonel Koosevelt t address il. Chairman Harding said Mr, Wein berg's reipirst woud require unani mous consent of Ihe convention, Il became known that Ihe decision to have another vole 011 the suffrage pank was brought about, not to re verse the action in its entirety, but to modify il, ' Rests With States. The proposition to be submitted in place of the original plank was so drafted as to affirm the principle of woman suffrage and at the same time lake the position that the rjuestiou of its appication should rest with each inilividua state. On reconsideration, , the suffrage plank, affirming the principle of woman suffragc.,JiuJ.juidifil by a phrase recognizing the right of each stale to decide for itself, was adopted by the repubican resolutions commit tee, by a vote of 35 t,o II. The plank as finally adopted read: ''The republican party, reaffirming its faith in government of the peo ple by the people and for the people, as a measure of justice to one half the adult people of this country, fa vors the extension of suffrage to women, but recognizes the right of each state to settle this question for itself." The committee then adjourned. When .Senator Lodge read th woman suffrage plank the women delegates of whom there are several led a demonstration. They waevd flags and seizing hats from the heads of men nearby waved them too. The demonstration interrupted his read ing, and when its subsided lie con cluded. "Recognizes the right of each stata to settle the question for itself," there was a roar of laughter and ap plause. "Who wins?" shouted a delegate. Raps for Order. At 4:31 Chairman Harding rapped for order and renewed eoflrts were made to get the deiegates seated. Senator Lodge was presented and brought the platform framed by the resolution committee. Senator Lodge was given the clos est attention us he read the party declaration.
